This half term, Year 8 have kicked off their curriculum by looking at the human body. For one lesson, we were looking at how joints allow for movement and made models using paper and string to show how when biceps contract, the arm bends but when triceps contract, the arm straightens. There were many examples in this lesson of “Respectful to All” and “Valuable Contribution” with pupils helping each other out to get the model to work as it was quite fiddly.
